Nikon!! You knocked it out of the park with this camera!! Grateful for all the updates as well!
I never lost faith in the Yellow and Black.. not since the 850
Nikon shooter since 1976. This is one impressive camera.
Will say goodbye to my old D850 soon and hello to the Z9. My pre order is in.
Glad Nikon is finally back.
Nikon made the pessimists eat their words,and is keeping the competition on its toes.📷📷👍
YES, BRING IT NIKON! FANTASTIC!!👍🏽.
Great job Nikon, game changer.
This is hands down the best overview of the Z9 out there. I'm surprised other Nikon pages (Europe etc) doesn't show this one as their main video as well. Mark Cruz is an exceptional presenter as well, there's not a single time I've seen him stutter or miss a beat. I'm so impressed not only with the video but with the Z9 and Nikon, really well done! Finally a camera to replace several cameras! /Rasmus
I think we have found the new Jeopardy host...
@@neilbarker9268 indeed! Though it might be a waste of talent 😜
I am not sure if the presentation is live. It may have been pre recorded.

I am wildlife photographer, Z9 is the best choice ever , fortunately I have it 🤗 , thank you so much for this amazing review about this legendary Camera ever 📸💞
OMG I NEEEEEEEED!!!!! Loved the live event this morning
I‘m in love 😍 Just ordered my Z9 🤩
Im not just enjoying the specs of the camera, but actually the artistic of those shots/videos.
Welcome back Nikon!
I'm a Canon shooter an I can't sleep !
Amazing launch!! Loved watching the BTS videos and live panel! Very excited about this camera. Well done 👏🏽
Yeah im just gonna start living on noodles now for about a year or 2 cuz i WANT this!
WATCH the Carbs and get that Camera!! suffer for your craft
Hey, Tony Northrup said it only shoots 20 fps, and he can't possibly get a perfect shot out of that.. Lol Toss that in the bin.. 😂 😂 😂
That guy is such a clown 🤣
Maybe its not the camera ....
120 fps 11mp mode should be great for sports IMHO.
@@jogibajr I'd say if you cant get the shot at 20fps then you wont get it at 30 fps either.
Tony needs 240 fps RAW to catch Chelsea running in their backyard
WELL DONE Nikon! I was about to bail ship as a loyal Nikonite for 11yrs (started with a D90 and currently own a Z6) but I can't wait to see what you do with a Z6iii - I am rooting for you guys!
in my opinion z9 will be remain on the top for many years
@Nate Dog it won't have the same af performance if the sensor is not stacked.
This is the first zero fluff, true to the adjectives product release. It's all about the internal Prores baby! Now please also add Prores 422 LT and Prores 422 in all recording modes internally and you're set to go! I never use H.264 or H.265 anymore, it's all Prores or some sort of compressed RAW for video.
Every time I think I reach financial stability, Nikon releases an amazing camera 😅
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Same
THis video was so much more interesting to watch than the live announcement video. Really happy with all the video features! Make sure you send copies to Pete, Gerald, and Make Art Now!
Great job!
No mechanical shutter, less moving parts. Now that is a true solid state camera!
Loved EVERYTHING 🥳 This is the mirrorless camera I've been waiting on from Nikon bc I don't want to switch systems. It's pre-ordered (along with that 100-400)! I'd eventually love to see a Z 12-24/2.8 VR in the future 🙏🏾
that would be huge !
I bought a z7ii and immediately sent it back; just couldn’t get over the lack of a pro feel over my d850. I thought the z9 would be great but I didn’t want to spend 7k just to start in a new system. But, at this price point, I can see myself actually moving over to mirror less in the next year or two.
Oh Nikon, we’ve been waiting for this sensor! Way to bring the heat with a camera that doesn’t overheat!🔥 Please quickly bring this stills AND video beast new sensor of yours down to the Z7 and Z6 and continue to expand your awesome lenses. Your files have ALWAYS been gorgeous! Way to go, showing them why you’re NIKON! 😁 #NikonReputationRestoration
BEAST
#MarkCruz What a great presentation, Mark Cruz!
Way to go Nikon!
Wow ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you very much
Colors are so different from different brands. This look just like the d40 I had 10 years ago.
Cool
Wow! Z9 is a beast! I'mso proud to have my Nikon camera and lens so happy they finally made such great update on everything! But I'm wondering if for video they would alow to record on external fast SSD like Red camera or Blackmagic is much more cheap then cards they are using, don't get me wrong I have a bunch but 2TB SSD is fast as the cards or more and 2TB we can record Raw a lot shooting. 😉 that would be so versatile camera on the shootings.
This sounds like the one that can do it all. Like the loyal supermodel that can cook, hold a fulltime job and raise kids for you.
While ?? Go out taking photos whenever you want in 8k.
@@readitoutloud yes🤣🤣🤣
wuena wuena primo!!!
Can't wait.
the Death of Sony , Fujifilm .Hasselblad ,Canon ,Leica.. May you ALL REST IN PEACE
you're funny. Leica isn't going anywhere.
good news sir
I got Z9 after 7 months been launched
Hello Mr Mark I have question why dose Z9 have less autofocus points then competitors also I would like to know I did order on launch day at 8:15am from Amazon 🇺🇸 and 3rd day from B&H also way long when Z9 announced input my name on waiting list from one more Nikon dealer so how soon I can get Z9 ?
Canon !!! Calling for EOS-R1 !
My next ask Nikon, please incorporate some security features to help prevent theft.
OMG!!! I’m soooooooooo patiently waiting……it’s all paid for…..Come on Nikon, release the hounds!!! Lol
"robust communication pathways", "processing power and incamera intelligence", and "breakthrough algorithm developed through sophisticated deep learning technology"!!! The end is near. The Nikon Z9 is Skynet!!!
Can someone explain 7min 52sec.. is he do multiple exposure incamera with a previously taken photo on the same card ???
YT needs a "wow" button to go along with the "like" button.
Two things that bother me: Flash Sync speed is only 1/200. It seems like we keep going lower and lower. My first DSLR was the Nikon D40 which had a sync speed of 1/500 in iTTL mode and could be even 1/1000th of a second if in manual mode! It was insane that I could balance out the harsh middle of the day Sunlight with a single SB-600 flash. I should have appreciated it more because once I went to the D90 and later D600/D610, all of that was gone. I guess it's good that at least the newer cameras have a lot more dynamic range so I use artificial lights a lot less but it's disappointing that the fancy electronic shutter still scans instead of just fire up all the sensor pixels at once. The next thing is the FTZ adapater...the first one should have included AF-D lens support and the 2nd one should have been the compact AF-S only. That way everybody would be happy but nope, Nikon is turning its back on their older lenses even though they are perfectly fine.
What about using a TC with non Z glass(using the FTZ2)
Canon is pretty quite ,,,, I could here crickets chirping ! ping
So this is what you have been cooking up Nikon. Very nice, here's my money.
how long can you shoot in 8k without overheating?
does it do focus shift
I doubt many will be available until Spring 2022.... Also don't expect any major upgrades to the other Z mount Nikons. That might affect sales of Z9. I don't expect they will bring the specs of the Z7ii up to the level of the Z9 AF. More likely they will bring out a Z7iii . Then how long before there's a Z10 ?
Well given that the underlying hardware is entirely different yeah I wouldn't expect the Z6/7ii to be anywhere near the Z9 capabilities. Expeed 7 in Z6/7iii is of course the likely route, but I would anticipate some improvements with new firmware release for the Z6/7ii
Will the AF system come through a firmware update for the Z6II and Z7II?
I would think yes to an extent. Of course one cannot forget that the underlying hardware between the Z6/7ii series is vastly different than that of the Z9.
Who wouldn’t want this Camera? I doubt that they are alive. There time has `
What is on the camera at the 8 minute mark.
Will the 3d eye AF tracking be available for the z7ii any time soon? Thanks
NX air looks great, but with only support for Z 9, Z 7II, Z 6II, Z 50, D6, D5.. hmmm no Z6 or Z7 or Z5???
I always use nikon. I have nikon d3300. I was very happy with its sharpness and quality. A few days ago, from nikon's website, I downloaded firmware update, 1.02 and lens data 2.018. After that image quality became very bad and sharpness in totally gone. After zooming the image, it looks like a cellphone quality image. Now, can you help me to get my old firmware version 1.00 and lens data version 2.02? I will be grateful.
We'd like to help figure out what happened! Please contact our troubleshooting team for assistance with this matter by using this link: bit.ly/3GN3qiV
I see the sensor is stacked. Does it also have BSI? I don’t see anything on that.
Hi Daniel - Yes, the Z 9 comes with a Nikon-developed 45.7MP BSI stacked CMOS sensor, coupled with the new EXPEED 7 image processer. Learn more at nikonusa.com/z9.
@@nikonusa Thank you for clearing that up. For some reason, I couldn’t find it on the website. It says it’s a stacked sensor, but I didn’t see anything about it being a stacked BSI sensor.
What happened to the nikon z6 ii firmware update? There has been no major update in so long 😟
Hi Gino! We will continue to release firmware updates to enhance performance for existing Z series cameras. You can download the latest firmware at: bit.ly/3KkY4xz
Use HD video to introduce 8K video.🤪🤪 but anyway I love Z9
Are Neural networks incorporated to help identify "eyes", "cars", "animals", and more? If so, would those neural networks be able to be customized based upon user input and training data?
Too bad Nikon didn't put 240 frames in the Z9 on full hd video :-( will ds be an update for this item in the future?
dont understand why you call it Z9 when logo says ZZ9
Mathew Jordan Smith why would you want to shoot wide open? That increases the odds of your subject (relating to this video) not being in focus because the depth of field is too shallow. Or am i wrong?
i love nikon cz its yellow and black colors.....bamblbee....trasformer
Couldn't focus on cam. They chose the sexiest man on the planet to advertise it.....
you have to be more specific quite a few sexy men in the video...
no more f mount DSLR
What is the proper name to pronounce? Zed 9 or Z 9
ZED
@@newguyg4297 Zee depends on which side of the Atlantic you are on I guess.
Hi Mark, how are you? This photo that appears the golfer on the camera screen, could tell me who it is. Thanks
Is this in FULL 14 BIT RAW? 45 megapixels 20 frames a second? "A defensive back intercepts the quarterback in the end zone, and runs the entire length of the field." 50 seconds of shooting in a single burst.
Yes, 14bit RAW.
Glad to see you finally got one out that can focus. Thanks.
I have some bad news for you, but if you couldn't get your Z6/7 to focus it's definitely an issue with you. I have zero problems with mine
@@newguyg4297 relying on other pro's like fro knows photo....they say they suck.
@@brianminkc Fro is not a pro. He's a youtuber that takes pictures from time to time. Get the camera for yourself, and try it out. I've never had a problem with the autofocus system because I know how to use it.
The buffer can only shoot 20 frames a second in "high efficiency raw"? That is the same size and information as a large JPG? Will the camera's buffer choke out using 14 bit RAW?
you are in the wrong channel
It's 14 bit RAW, just uses a NEW more efficient algorithm.
Hi James! The New RAW format retains the same high image quality, dynamic range and flexibility as conventional RAW files with approximately 1/3 smaller file size., This allows for more than 1000 frames capturing 14-bit RAW files When using select CF Express cards.
@@nikonusa Thank you! if I do shoot 30-80 frames in a second in full raw, which I doubt, in full raw how long will the buffer take to clear when i pause for 80 more shots?
put a fucking motor in that FTZ adapter already wtf is this bull crap. D lenses are spectacular.
Whatever. Most people will still make mediocre images with it, while the true artists can make great images with anything.
True, but I'm still going to buy one because life is short, and I can't take my money with me.
This is a D850 "which I own" in beast mode. Can't wait to receive my new tool, the Z9.
Broke hater
If you want to skip the boring, noisy and annoying intruduction, jump to minute 3:25
Now, Sony and Canon cameras are obsolete.
Now, it's a three horse race. (I fixed it for you)
The battery life seems pretty pathetic compared to a D4 & D5.
Matt Granger took 24,000 shots and still had 30% battery left.
@@mlai2546 Impressive! That's a lot better than the advertised 700.
@@BB.......... I agree.. I don't trust the CIPA numbers. I think DPreview did mention that it is the longest lasting battery on any cameras. Even longer than Nikon D5.
Send me $5000 dollars to buy it. Come on this is not for everyone. People already having a D850 or D750 should think before you buy this. Are you sure you want to spend $5000 for this and then crap out the D850's or 750's?? What a loss. Nikon does not even have any exchange programs for these. So they sponsor the cameras for the all the youtubers to promote and make people buy them. Not falling for that anymore. Thanks.
Why did you buy the D850? What a waste of money. You could have stayed with Film.
@@mlai2546 Because Z9 was not available that time. Also in few month you will be telling the same for Z9 too...
@@dhiraj027in that's just progression. Most people don't need a new phone every 2 years yet they get one. For people who want the latest tech, it is a no brainer.
I own the D850, bought it used to years ago in pristine condition with 10k clicks on it. The Z9 is a D850 in beast mode. Placed my order on launch day with the new Z adapter, it will pair up just fine with my Sigma 500mm f4 sport and Nikon 200-500 f5.6. I shoot pretty my wildlife/birds and macro.
@@jfphotography69 congrats. I don't have the budget for a Z9, so I am waiting for a Z8 or Z7iii hopefully with a stacked sensor.
I don't think this new auto focus system beats Sony or Canon.
If you want to skip the boring, noisy and annoying intruduction, jump to minute 3:25. And still more annoying, loud music ahead. NO LIKE
Nikon main problem now is losing money losing in market going broke on the verge of bankruptcy. Their focus on body be like sony but their major problem on their very limited lens selection and build quality..cheap crap. Their ergonomics of bodies confusing looking and lacking noone wants flip up screens. Compacts replaced by smartphones nowadays in market. Fuji cameras five fourths like a niche and for vintage like shooters...old school..their tech ergonomics is more confusing layout design got more manual controls and dials.
